Pls note I am talking about East London here.
36%+ only applies to GIS.
Personally most of those East London applicants with interviews have been 70%+, below that score I don't know anyone who has progressed to an interview but I suspect more invites will go out so who knows...0 -
I do not know what GIS is.
I go by what I was told when speaking to the Recruitment Line earlier on this week.
And I still believe that lowering the pass mark for East London had a "hidden agenda" as it is pretty obvious...0 -

Guaranteed Interview Scheme
I wouldn't put to much stock in the recruitment line tbh0 -
I got 76% and just saw my interview invite where I previously worked. This is for East London and I personally know a few others who got less than me but they won't tell me their score. :< Getting butterflies in my stomach already.
On a side note, my competencies were not looked at as the feedback is still pending. I seriously hope they don't look at that after I had the interview and reject me on that basis (something to talk about at the interview I suppose).0 -

Hi All,
I have nothing of value to add really, just wanted to thank everyone for posting. I've been reading from the start and it really is comforting to know there are people who understand how stressful and infuriating this process is. Some of you may remember me from the 09 recruitment. Can't believe i've actually put myself through it again LOL. I applied to 3 out of the 4 London districts. FINALLY had my competency scores from one last week- no further updates since...
Keep the faith people!One day I will be a [STRIKE]respectable[/STRIKE] Civil Servant.Until then, I will be a secret MSE poster :shhh:0 -

Class of '09, that was fun.0 -
Hi everyone, been lurking around here since the beginning and so glad I'm not the only one getting completely stressed over this.
I've applied for North West, had my scores back just over a week ago, and was feeling pretty confident after getting them. But since then I've had nothing.
Anyone had any news from this region? Interview or rejection?
I do know that interviews for the wigan area will be held in Manchester but that's all I know!0 -
Let me just say that..... when I was working in a big East London hospital.... they had to recruit to meet.... ended up with people who really should NOT have got the jobs while rejecting pretty good candidates.. just to meet some.. ermmm targets..
Ah.. sod it, not my call and I am out of the run here as really not interested (for myself) any more but...some things are just simply wrong...0
